I was thinking, too, about fires and hot stoves, and dirty diapers, and lots of other conveniences she wouldn&#39;t have had. Whew!<br /><br />Claudia, thanks for visiting. This photo of Elizabeth is sadly lacking in quality, but since it&#39;s the only one I have of her at that age, I use it. I think the original was proably a very small one and the person who gave this one to me enlarged the little one.<br><br />I agree that it must have been very sad to lose so many children.Nancyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12136584654825212359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6892358786681938797.post-29698636972220272262010-08-24T08:59:06.890-04:002010-08-24T08:59:06.890-04:00What a lovely picture of Elizabeth.

I suppose the older ones help out and all, but that was back in the days of washing by hand, sewing by hand, cooking from scratch, and limited health care. Wow, Elizabeth!Christine H.http://www.blogger.com/profile/09786732494496282743noreply@blogger.com
